Literally means "pulling your pants down to fart" which is a Chinese idiom for "wasted effort." Makes sense to me!

Olt - Keep. I'm not a strong believer, but he'll get a shot.
Pacheco - I'm not as high on him as others. I'd consider him cuttable.
Eaton - I like him more than others do and I'd keep him.
Calhoun - Cuttable.
F Martinez - Cuttable
Axelrod - Cuttable though he has a job.
de Vries - Cuttable
R Delgado - I'd have to get someone really good to cut him.
Lyles - Cuttable though he has a job, though I'd cut Axelrod before Lyles.
W Peralta - Keep. Pile of natural talent. Baseball IQ has improved from low-grade to below average.
Straily - Keep
Thornburg - Cuttable. Did better on return, but smoke and mirrors, IMO.
Cingrani - Keep. I'd keep him with Dusty Baker as his coach, but with Baker gone, he's a must keep.I'm just here for the baseball.

Originally posted by rhd View PostSo how does it work? Do you just get exactly the same stats that the player put up exactly a year earlier? E.g., on 8/17/13 Profar went 2-4, 2R 2 RBI, SB. So on 8/17/14, these stats get added to your team totals? And do you have a regular draft or are all the available desirable players taken and you just make trades or put in waiver claims in order to improve your team?
I used to play Pursue the Pennant in college which is very similar.拖裤子,

So, I'm looking at my list and who I think would be the best to pick with the 13th overall pick. I believe Puig, Fernandez, Myers, D'Arnuad, Rendon, Cole, Gyroko, Arenado, Wacha, and Ryu definitely won't reach me. That leaves Wheeler, Yelich, Bogaerts and T Walker as possibilities. How would you rank those four? Or is there someone from the master list that I am missing who I should consider at #13? I am not really considering Hamilton though I hope someone will take him early bases on reputation alone as that will give me another player to consider. Thanks for all your guys help. I really do appreciate it seeing I've been out of the loop with minor leaguers for the past couple years.拖裤子,

Bogaerts probably ought to be an option. Maybe Gattis although I don't know what Strat thinks of his fielding or how hard it is to get a decent catcher. But this is some of my anti-pitching prospect bias coming through.
Also note that Cingrani was significantly better than Wheeler in FIP/xFIP in the same number of innings this season.In the best of times, our days are numbered, anyway. And it would be a crime against Nature for any generation to take the world crisis so solemnly that it put off enjoying those things for which we were presumably designed in the first place, and which the gravest statesmen and the hoarsest politicians hope to make available to all men in the end: I mean the opportunity to do good work, to fall in love, to enjoy friends, to sit under trees, to read, to hit a ball and bounce the baby.

Originally posted by rhd View PostI would lean towards Yelich among those four. If you like Bogaerts tho, I dont think you'll have to worry about Profar playing the same position. as he will play 2B w Andrus at SS. Bogaerts might end up playing a lot of 3B also. What are the requirements for position eligibility?拖裤子,
